Polished Round Silver Office Paper Weight Magnify Glass
The Polished Round Silver Office Paper Weight Magnify Glass is a versatile tool for the home or the office. It is a weighted polished disc that can be used as a paperweight to stop important documents from flying off in a gust of wind. However, it also has a secret nestled within its round enfolds: a handy magnifying glass that swings out and can be used to scrutinize even the tiniest of details, at 3 X magnification, whenever the print is too small or the serial number too fine.
This fun and stylish piece of office decor is crafted with precision and care from shimmering metallic materials, which gives the piece an elegant, executive look. It would be perfect on the desk of a powerful executive, but it can come in handy in the work drawer of a stay-at-home mom just as easily. At 3" across it sits comfortably under the palm, heavy enough to feel like it means business and small enough to travel from desk to drawer to kitchen table.
The magnifying glass paperweight combo can be personalized with a custom engraved name or phrase on the top of the piece. The engraving is done in-house by HansonEllis, which has been personalizing gifts since 1999, and there is room for eighteen characters on each of two lines. Get really creative with snippets of poems, or even your own name, to really make it your own. One idea is to get fancy with a set of initials carved finely into the top, so the disc reads as a monogrammed desk piece before anyone discovers the lens.
This is a great gift for kids as well, as they are always ready to explore the world, looking at creeping insects or staring at different substances up close. If you have their name engraved on the surface, and even their birth date, this can make a really memorable birthday gift, the kind that gets carried outside on every bug hunt and then sits on a desk twenty years later.
Add your engraving text above, choose your quantity, and give someone a desk piece that earns its place twice over.

Which one should I choose
Shoppers choosing a desk gift usually weigh this two-in-one disc against a plain paperweight or a standalone magnifying glass.
| Polished Round Silver Office Paper Weight Magnify Glass | Choose it when the desk gift should do two jobs and carry a name: a weighted polished disc with a 3 X magnifier that swings out from inside. |
|---|---|
| A plain engraved paperweight | Choose that when the piece is purely decorative and never has to help anyone read a serial number or a footnote. |
| A handheld magnifying glass | Choose that for reading alone; it will not hold documents down, and it will not sit on a desk looking like an executive keepsake. |
For a desk gift that gets picked up rather than dusted, the engraved paperweight magnifier is the pick.
